Linguistics

Remember to never split an infinitive. The passive voice should never be used. Do not put statements in the negative form. A preposition is a terrible word to end a sentence with. And don’t start a sentence with a conjunction. Writing carefully, dangling participles should be avoided. …Everyone should be careful to use a singular pronoun with singular nouns in their writing. …
